hey guys, this is just a package made with my "Rickys Rom Kitchen", will root any android device with a working custom recovery!
Note: all i did was make this universal and make it a flashable zip.

So, you know the drill, your warranty is now viod, flash at your own risk blah blah.

How to root?
1. Flash philztouch recovery or any supported recovery for your device with odin - INSTRUCTIONS AND DOWNLOAD HERE
2. Make a nandroid backup from within philztouch recovery
3. Flash my universal S5 rootkit INSIDE PHILZTOUCH recovery - DOWNLOAD FROM HERE(PhilzTouch)
4. (OPTIONAL) install busybox from playstore and download my Samsung Tool app and backup EFS! - DOWNLOAD HERE

Thats all.

regarding KNOX

sorry, don't want to turn this thread into a discussion, but it feels appropriate to ask here;
once Knox is tripped, can it be re-instated?

I don't mean reducing the counter back from 0x1 to 0x0, erasing all evidence of a rooting,
rather,just allowing the device back to a secure state.

    Since this update zip requires a custom recovery, and you need an unlocked device before you can install a custom recovery, it is misleading to advertise this as a way to root a device. It's also unnecessary since the update Chainfire created does the exact same thing.

    The only thing I can find that you created is your "checkpartroot" script that doesn't serve any purpose.

    May also want to look at /mnt/extSdCard directory (if you happen to have a microSD card you can format as exFAT).

    This directory worked on the S4 for one kernel-based exploit (perf_event) where /data/local/tmp did not actually (details).

    Not sure if anything changed with KitKat as far as that directory is concerned but worth a try.

    Title is deceiving, might want to change it to be specific to unlocked devices.
